Waveshare ESP32-S3 Touch LCD 1.46" round specifications
The Waveshare ESP32-S3 Touch LCD 1.46" round is a 1.46" 412×412 display board by Waveshare, built around the ESP32-S3 (ESP32-S3R8 module) running at 240 MHz. The panel uses a SPD2010 (QSPI, integrated touch+display controller) controller over QSPI, with SPD2010 (integrated into the display controller, on its own I2C) touch input. Memory: 16 MB flash, 8 MB PSRAM; wireless: Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. In LCD Ultra Pro you can design its UI visually at the exact resolution; a ready-made display driver for the Arduino export is not available yet, so the export contains the LVGL UI code for your own project.

Frequently asked questions
What is the resolution of the Waveshare ESP32-S3 Touch LCD 1.46" round?
412×412 pixels on a 1.46" screen, driven at 16-bit colour depth.
Which display controller and interface does it use?
SPD2010 (QSPI, integrated touch+display controller) over QSPI.
Does the Waveshare ESP32-S3 Touch LCD 1.46" round have a touchscreen?
Yes — SPD2010 (integrated into the display controller, on its own I2C).
Which ESP32 chip and how much memory does it have?
ESP32-S3 (ESP32-S3R8) at 240 MHz, 16 MB flash, 8 MB PSRAM.
Which GPIOs are free for my own sensors or relays?
6 GPIOs are free: GPIO 0, GPIO 1, GPIO 3, GPIO 9, GPIO 43/TX, GPIO 44/RX.
Can I use LVGL on the Waveshare ESP32-S3 Touch LCD 1.46" round?
Yes, with your own display driver setup. In LCD Ultra Pro you can design the UI at the board’s exact resolution and export the LVGL 8.4 UI and event code; a ready-made display driver for this board is not included yet, so you call ui_init() from your own LVGL project.
